heathy percent so we live in a much better world today but the nature of conflict has changed there are fewer casualties is that at the same time it's more difficult to deal with you know we didn't have suicide bombings during the cold war we have that now so it's clear to play with so called armed forces have got to be modernized they need to be more flexible they need to be more maneuverable they need to go a long distances here they have to be highly skilled and they have to use the most technologically advanced equipment but instead on both sides both the nato and russia we're investing in the equipment of the cold war huge time is big for missions you know the wrong type of people we stick taxpayers money on the wrong weapons were fated in the last war not the next conflict so we've got to adapt nato has to adapt russia has to adapt in order to be able to confront those new challenges of the threats to our security i talking about more modern weapons

versus that's when the guerrilla we're talking a guerrilla warfare they're not using very highly advanced weapons themselves well there's nothing more primitive than a suicide bomber an individual who strap some explosive device to to themselves and blows themselves up themselves up as well as others and their company or this is you know this is all this new it has happened in the past but never on this on this scale so we we've got to be innovative in the we we think about these things to as a political say to this others a military side of this so that means adaptation innovation cooperation and it means cooperation and among all of the world's crispy people are going to be affected by modern warfare and too much of a tie at the present moment just take it all worth fund to say it's ancient and gorgeous. conflicts and people here talking about nato and some common you know

possible need to act fantasy it is a fantasy and we have people in the way still say russia. russia russia wants to rule the world look at what catherine the great said you know i can only secure my frontiers by expanding catherine the game has big court is today more fun to see and hear if you go to talk to people in the streets they say we're worried about migration we're worried about was the piracy on the high seas we're worried about our jobs our pensions because of economic instability we've got to focus what people are concerned with and start working together to deal with these problems well it's interesting that you bring up the different problems your sense of who is nato's enemy because international terrorism first doesn't sound very convincing as you rightly brought up there are other issues that people are

concerned with so who is nato's enemy while vader's enemy is instability that's what will tell of this it's the people who are on the insurgents it's it's all of that secular the same with russia's enemy is you we're not talking about nature being russia's enemy or all russia being neither is anybody the fact is that we've got to deal with these problems for example suddenly in the indian ocean the ships of every country of being attacked by somali pirates in small boats so what happens to that what is the response to it is it is a multinational fleet under need to control because nato has the machinery to do that with russian ships traineeships a mother of to take to the sealing the ships that are there against these pirates from a field just what is the other big problem we've got piece these fragile winfield states where government basically doesn't exist. and it spills over refugees it

spills over in terms of child builds economic instability these of the enemies who are going to do what they're not be all creative it is this is not seen charity or appearing on japan or even you know the soviet union or need to study this it's much more disparate but it requires us to be imaginative and now thinking you know if the pilots the. international criminals the traffickers think globally. borders don't matter to them at all they ignore borders but we are trapped within the borders so we've got to start thinking as innovative with and and and was allegedly as these people do if we're going to keep people say now you mention your corporation with china with regard to the somali pirates out china is growing konami power and they also know that they have the biggest military two point five million strong is

a reason to be afraid of china well no because china is facing the same problem you know when the piracy came up it was traineeships as well and china decided it was going to be engaged you know so we start thinking of china as an enemy rather than as an hour against these forces of disorder you know and then we kill another called war while else would we want to do that you know the neighbor of china is north korea north korea's got nuclear weapons and it's a crazy steers clear crazy people run it so as a threat to china it's much closer to china than it is to or to new york city so you know we need to engage all the different parties in in this north make artificial distinction right some more cooperation rather than points of contention with china at this point you know you know i wrote. the greatest and most successful defense ryans of the world. ever know native. and it has

been it has been useful but it had survived and thrived because it wasn't just a military organization it was an alliance of values a belief in democracy a belief in people choosing their own government of freedom before the law of good neighborly relations good internal relations all of these things these are values this kid you need to together share of these faults but needs to be part of that community of values sure that we know what we're defending that's what that's what to do these conflicts and what today's world is about it's defending the order states against this order of world and bringing stability to these parts of the world as well one of the country that sort of creating a bit of instability in that at least in the minds of us in countries would be iran now to two years ago at the pentagon has has been reportedly developing plans of

attacking iran how realistic is that what i think everyone goes in option quantity from the lowest the highest level you know that's that's natural because iran is not a normal country seeking to acquire nuclear weapons and iran is a country whose president of the ready said it wants to wipe one of its neighbors off the mark so you can't talk about iran in terms of just a country developing a nuclear deterrence it's a danger to its neighbors and indeed as it develops long range missiles to a much wider and wider area and frankly when i go to moscow i find people more school even more concerned than the americans are about a nuclear iran because iran and terrified of the missile sites they're much closer to the russian border than the united to the american by. so the rhetoric

might be different but we have all got a common interest in helping the people of iran to escape the states for dictatorship to stop and to stop iran being a menace in the most volatile region of the world now here we're analyzing a country with at analyzing there a leader of the same way that possibly here we've done with iraq in the past so we should have a right to think that was a mistake because there were no weapons of mass destruction found out to date but we know that no we didn't know that then. so is why czar is what is after the other but iran and iraq are not the same iraq was a dictatorship of the most vicious and a horrible time it was a country that attacked the one of its neighbors iran and used chemical and biological weapons it is a country that invaded another neighboring country kuwait and reaped and pillage shooting there is a country that used chemical weapons against its own people in the kurdish area and

the it's a country that dreamed the marchioness where the arabs the shia arabs had lived for many years and was involved in genocidal attacks it was it had a track record of threatening its neighbors and the wider region and we therefore believed and had good reason to believe even if the intelligence was faulty that saddam was up to something and it was only a matter of time before he would again threaten his neighbors and threaten the region iran has north of fundamentalistic people should we see for the recent demonstrations of the people the people of iran want to be free they're able to demonstrate your they're being ruthless still oppressed at the moment but you know this is more a monolithic country and i think we need to be more sympathetic to the nude hornish decent peace loving people in iran and encourage them to stand up. to those who

would drop press them and seek to destabilize the region that would mean leadership . leadership is of huge importance of the world today i'm not a leader of any war i'm an ex said john. but there are people who must carry on the torch of leadership of the world today and recognize it is what people are concerned about and whoa whoa we need to find the new tools to be able to deal with these concerns if we go. preoccupied with the ghosts of the past then we miss the opportunity of doing something good and we take our people and in danger because we've taken our eye off the real target all right thank you very much for your time pleasure.
